Orb caught on camera during a Haunted History After Dark tour tonight 9/24/2011!

Haunted History After Dark hosted a great crowd tonight for our Saturday tour. This enthusiastic group asked very many awesome questions regarding both the haunted and the history of Old Town Fort Collins.

Now that's scary! A guest and his son.

Grace picked up on some new entities at our locations on our route, as well as other spirits lurking inside other establishments that are not typical on our route, including two early mortuaries. Both are now very busy restaurants.

As our tours pick up speed, so seems the activity of the spirits. Recently, we have had guests witness a mist or fog emerge from a second floor window, which they pointed out before Grace and I even saw it. We have had a recent and brave participant from California be told to “Go away” directly to his face as we were in the middle of conducting a tour. We have even had a “goosing” experience at our starting location before the tour had even begun! One awesome guest on our tour tonight, after hearing that said, “Well, I’m not getting goosed by anyone in the physical, so that’s fine with me!” Before our tours we provide information about many of the extraordinary early residents that made Fort Collins what it is. All of those we talk about lived here, most died here, and some still walk the streets today. The early residents we talk about were a very colorful, ambitious crowd, and some of them very handsome. Another recent guest, a very attractive female, said, “Well, if he’s cute…he can come home with me!” Unfortunately for her, as pretty as she was, Grace clears all of our tour guests from any entities that may want to attach themselves to our courageous participants. I’m certain both our beautiful guest tonight and the latter participant won’t have any trouble finding suitable human companions. But, its intriguing.

Another phenomenon that has been increasing on our tours is genuine photographic evidence of spirits through “orbs”. According to ghoststudy.com “orbs” are believed (by many) to be ghosts in the form of balls of light. They are life forms that travel in groups and are believed to be the human soul or life force of those that once inhabited a physical body here on earth.”

This would make sense, as the orb caught by my own simple camera tonight, was at a location where Grace said a large spirit party was currently congregating as we were giving our tour. I had intended to just take photos of our wonderful guests while Grace spoke, but I got more. After the tour, a participant, Nikki, asked, “Did you get anything on your camera?” She added, “I felt like maybe you did.” ﻿ ﻿So, her and I flipped through my photos and there, lo and behold, was an orb! The photo above is completely untouched and was first seen by Nikki and myself immediately after the tour. In an earlier blog, a recent Haunted History After Dark tour guest also caught an orb at a rumored haunted Old Town location.

Check out photos of other awesome guests tonight below!

As spirit activity in Old Town is abundant, please feel free to bring any equipment you feel comfortable using such as digital recorders, EMF detectors, etc. on our tours. I’m just a historian, so I don’t know about the technicalities of equipment yet, and Grace obviously doesn’t need it. But, feel free. I’m certain orbs are a-plenty in Old Town.

Thank you so much to all of our very courageous and enthusiastic guest tonight! You were amazing!
